sturdy – Poetry for Change

Platinum Certificate for my poem, Encased in Flowers

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Encased in Flowers

She seems to float over flowers
Pastel colored in pinks, lilacs, beige,
Surrounding her while they adorn her beige
Print dress filled with flowers.

Her svelte figure elegantly slides
Across the garden she walks through,
Her mind filled with beauty’s flow,
Effect, inspiration that has no ends.

To her each flower is a promise
Of power, where fragility isn’t vulnerability,
No its delicate countenance presumably
Is nothing but appearance,

Their roots are sturdy,
Their leaves filled with hues of greens,
Their slim stem carries hope that leans
Towards humanity in simple beauty.

Diploma for my poem, Deserted Journey

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Deserted Journey

Sunset’s rutilant blaze builds a haze
Over the horizon in hues of oranges,
Golds, reds, that reflect in dust’s foggy blaze,
They’re synchronized into a ballet of ages

Long gone, when the charriot, wagon,
Animals were the only transportation
Where gumption of pioneers were driven
To survive on perilous roads where legislation

Is words dipped in coffee, disolvable,
Empty Of any dominion over Darwin
Law of ‘survival of the fittest’. They gobble
The deserted desert roads diving in

The depth of an unknown terrain
Nature and man, enemies without
Equal, as they unite to entomb pain
In the arid journey where a bout

Between enemies, ‘frenemies’
Is but the flow of the sands of times
Whose loss is intangible for honesty’s
Dissapearing into the skies in forgotten crimes.
